Our Base coat and our Top coat: your two manicure staples
Combine our Manicure essentials kit with the Silicon nail polish colours you love, and you can let your imagination run riot, with a manicure which protects and strengthens fragile or brittle nails. Our Manicure essentials kit are the starter and the dessert to sandwich the main dish (aka our coloured silicon nail polish) for a nail-friendly manicure suitable for all types of nails.
This kit contains:
- Our protective base coat: literally the base for all decent manicures. It repairs, strengthens and remineralises fragile, brittle or splitting nails. Its antioxidant properties protect them from nail polish pigments and from the irreversible damage caused by everyday aggressions.
- Our silicon top coat: It protects your nails and helps your polish last a few more days. Its plump texture produces a gel effect and adds gloss, for a manicure worthy of a nail bar.

How to perform a full manicure to protect and strengthen your nails
Apply a thin coat of protective silicon base coat to clean, dry nails. Wait a few minutes for the base to dry before applying two coats of silicon nail polish. Wait 2-3 minutes between each coat. Lastly, apply a silicon top coat for a glossier, longer-lasting manicure. One last tip: once you have applied all four coats and your manicure is dry to the touch, run cold water over your fingers. The cold will help the polish set more quickly and prevent it snagging accidentally. Pat your hands gently on a towel to dry them. Voilà!
Complete your routine with:
- Our silicon nail polish, for a pretty, opaque manicure that cares for fragile nails. With a varied palette to choose from according to your mood and add a touch of colour to everyday life!
- Our nail polish drying oil, to halve the drying time of your manicure and protect it!
- Our nail polish remover, to remove your nail polish gently. With 100% ingredients of natural origin, it turns a dangerous moment for fragile nails into a care routine.
- Our repairing nail care, to soothe and nourish fragile cuticles, and strengthen your nails right where they form, so they grow back stronger and healthier.

With our formulas boasting an average 74.5% bio-based ingredients and fortified with an innovative, ultra-antioxidant complex, the Manicure essentials kit is suitable for all nail types, including the most fragile and even those of pregnant and breastfeeding women. They are also vegan and 10-free. What more could you even ask for?

When to apply the Top coat to optimise drying time
You can apply the Top coat a few hours after the first three coats, or the next morning, to protect them and optimise the drying time. Feel free to use our Nail polish drying oil, to halve the drying time for your manicure.
Does the Manicure essentials kit protect from UV rays?
No. If you only apply the Base and Top Coats, which are clear, you will not protect your nails from UV rays. However, if you apply two coats of opaque coloured nail polish, our Manicure Kit will mechanically protect your nails from UV rays. Only our “Nude” and “Milky Nude” colours are not opaque. These colours are recommended only for those who do not need protection from UV rays.
Are the Silicon nail polishes suitable for nails damaged by cancer treatment?
Yes, like all MÊME products, they are perfectly suitable for people being treated for cancer. A full manicure, with silicon and opaque products, can even help to protect and strengthen nails during treatment that is harsh on nails.
Are the Manicure essentials kits suitable for pregnant women?
Yes! With their especially body-friendly, bio-based and 10-free formula, the products used in our Manicure essentials kit are also suitable for pregnant and breastfeeding women, although they should be used on special occasions only.
